Laser Gum Bleaching London
Though it's a desirable characteristic, not everyone has pink gums from birth. Some people's gums appear dark, practically black, for a variety of reasons. Certain ethnic groups have been observed to have darker gums more frequently than others, and genetics is most likely the cause. Gum discolouration can also result from exposure to irritants like tobacco smoke or certain drugs.
However, dark gums may not always indicate a disease or malfunction. If you have dark gums yet want pink gums for a more beautiful appearance, the answer is laser gum bleaching. Laser gum bleaching at Art Dentistry produces pinking of the gums and lighter gum tissue.
Can Laser Gum Bleaching Cause The Gum To Turn Pink And Why Is It Dark In Colour?
Nevertheless, the laser gum bleaching procedure eliminates the outer, black layer of gum tissue and destroys the cells that generate melanin. After laser gum bleaching, the tissue that regenerates will be lighter in colour and have a pinker tone, with very little to no pigmentation.
Is It Possible To Use Laser Gum Bleach On Me?
Laser gum whitening is quite effective when the melanin-producing cells in the gums are the cause of the dark spots on the gums. This is the most common cause of black gums. Gum staining (or darkening) can also result from amalgam tattooing, gum disease, and discoloured tooth roots.
The following circumstances may prevent laser gum bleaching from being beneficial:
- Laser gum bleaching is not advised when gum disease is the reason for the blackness of the gums.
- It should not be used by people with thin gums or teeth roots that are very close to the surface. Treatment in these circumstances may lead to sensitivity.
- When dark implants or roots are visible through the gum line, resulting in dark gums, laser gum bleaching is not advised.
- Blood thinners should not be taken by those who are taking medicine. If you are thinking about getting the operation, we advise you to schedule a free consultation at our facility. Our specialist will assess your case and decide if laser gum bleaching is the best course of action for you.
How Effective Is Laser Gum Bleaching, And What Happens If All The Particles Are Left Behind?

If they are more deeply ingrained in the gums, some places could require a top-up. A free follow-up appointment is provided by our clinic for one review session, which is scheduled two to three weeks after the first treatment.
How Long Does Laser Gum Have A Bleaching Effect?
The effect typically lasts for a long period, even though many factors can influence it. The result can last for at least 20 years in most cases.
Does Gum Or Depigmentation Bleaching Result From Using A Laser?

What Is The Laser Gum Bleaching Procedure Time Framework?
The amount that has to be treated depends on the size of the gum-related area. Generally speaking, the laser gum bleaching procedure takes 20 to 60 minutes to complete, depending on the size of the affected area.
